Amazon Kindle Fire vs Apple iPad 2

Apple iPad is popular and there's a lot of buzz about their latest version - the iPad 2 and even moreso after the death of Steven Jobs. Apple iPad has got a name and several years of innovation behind it. People who buy apple's products not only feel as if they were just buying the product and what it can do, they also get some satisfaction from buying something like an artwork. That's what Apple's products are like, it's not just techie, its also fashionable and has got some aesthetic value such that you could hang an iPad on a wall and it would look like a great painting.

However, the iPad is still just a notebook that has got some features that are already available on most laptops or notebooks. I have been fantasizing over Apple's iPad for a while now and really wanted to have one until I also saw Amazon's Kindle fire.

The truth is that there are a whole lot of iPad look-a-likes or notebooks that can offer you the same service which iPad 2 is already offering

What else can I say? They both offer wifi support, browsing, multimedia, entertainment, downloads, cloud computing and so on. Men, these tech companies are just probably giving customers much more than they really make use of.
